I'm in, and am pretty sure I can offer a lift for 1 from York.

Shotgun! (if I may)

Unless someone has no tranport at all. In which case I'll drive myself.

Its already a more environmentally friendly ride than 2 weeks ago - 6 riders, 6 cars!

EDIT: I'm just by the wigginton road side of the Nestle factory.

Frustratingly I'm going to have to blob. The new brake pads I had delivered this am don't fit so am without front brake.

Have a good ride....

Front brakes are overrated...

So are there just 2 of us?! Please rob, put the old pads back on!

Steph I hope you have an idea of where to go (route wise) as I have none!

The old pads are sort of erm, pad free, if you know what I mean? After 7 years of use I think they are termed "vintage".

Anyway, there're likely to be others there tonight that are too shy to contribute to this forum - fear yee not..

I've got a map and I'm sure others will be at Castle Howard. If we get lost we'll just find a road and cycle till we find a pub. 8)

Three of us had a good ride last night, returning just before dark. Thanks to Nick for navigating a great route and to the weather for cooperating.

Re the damage caused to the bridleway on the ridge (am assuming it's a bridleway) anyone know which council is supposed to maintain in this area?
